Adjacent owners: 30-day period to submit allegations in property rectification proceedings

The resolution establishes that adjacent owners have the right to submit allegations in property rectification proceedings via georeferenced graphic representation, within a period of 30 days from the submission of the validation report. This right is activated under Article 199.2 of the Mortgage Law, expanding the participation of neighbours in the modification of registry descriptions. Allegations must be submitted before the final registration takes place.

In 2 key points

  1. Adjacent owners may submit allegations within 30 days following the submission of the report (art. 199.2)
  2. Allegations must be submitted before the final registration of the graphic representation (art. 199.2)

How it affects those involved

Adjacent owners can now intervene in changes to property descriptions by submitting allegations within a 30-day period, increasing their involvement in rectification processes. Registry administrations must ensure the timeframe and the receipt of allegations. Property advisors should inform their clients of this right and the submission deadline to avoid risks of procedural inadequacy.
